Publisher's Synopsis
This document is a technical explanation of the Convention and Protocol between the United States and Venezuela that was signed at Caracas on January 25, 1999 (the "Convention"). Negotiations took into account the U.S. Treasury Department's current tax treaty policy, as reflected in the U.S. Treasury Department's Model Income Tax Convention of September 20, 1996 (the "U.S. Model") and its recently negotiated tax treaties, the Model Income Tax Convention on Income and on Capital, published by the OECD in 1992 and amended in 1994, 1995 and 1997 (the "OECD Model"), and recent tax treaties concluded by Venezuela.
